The media NEVER talks about Donald Trump’s disapproval…
Just his approval…
The new Fox poll (!) is spotlighting Trump disapproval number among Americans, which is just 1 point shy of their highest disapproval for him……
President Trump‘s disapproval rating has jumped to 56 percent in a Fox News survey released Wednesday, just one point shy of the record high in Fox News polling.
The survey found a 5 percentage point increase in Trump’s disapproval from last month. The only time his disapproval rating was higher, according to Fox News, was when it reached 57 percent in October 2017.
Forty-three percent of respondents said they approve of Trump’s job performance, down from 46 percent last month. The record low for Trump approval in Fox News’s polling is 38 percent, also from October of 2017.
Trump has the disapproval of a record number of men, at 53 percent, white men, 46 percent, and independents, 64 percent, according to the survey.
Researchers surveyed 1,013 registered voters nationwide from Aug. 11 to 13. The results have a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.
The poll comes at a tense political moment following two mass shootings earlier this month, one of which appears to have been racially motivated.
Approval for Trump’s response to the incidents is just 37 percent, and 46 percent said they believe his administration has made the country less safe from mass shootings.
Fifty-nine percent of voters in the poll say they are unhappy with the way things are going in the country….

Where did you get the 88% figure?
I do NOT see it in the Fox poll….
I DO see bad numbers for Trump’s handling of the country and a 36% approval for his handling the issue of mass shooting and gun violence…
The Fox poll is NOT in ANYWAY I can see Good for Trump…
Across the board….
I agree that most Republicans will vote for Elmer Fudd as a GOPer against Any Democrat…
But as we continue go back and forth about?
He’s losing support around the edges….

However, based on your “ Elmer Fudd” remark,I really don’t understand why this number matters to you.
Then again, I often don’t understand your various tangents over peripheral matters such as this.
Indeed, the relative stability of Trumos approval/ Disapproval numbers remains a source of discussion among pollsters and others.
